A man was taken into custody Sunday after a woman was found dead in a home on Montreal’s South Shore.
Police aren’t releasing many details and are only describing the woman’s death as suspicious.
At around 2 a.m., the Régie intermunicipale de police Roussillon was called to the home on Union Street in Sainte-Catherine, in Quebec’s Montérégie region. Police officers found the woman, who was pronounced dead at the scene.
A forensic identification team was called in and the Sûreté du Québec (SQ) took over the investigation, according to spokesperson Elizabeth Marquis-Guy.
A man was arrested and sent to hospital. The SQ declined to say whether there is any link between the woman and the man in custody.
The investigation is ongoing.
